Images are dia- as well as multi-lexical. They are chakras, or nadi of the subtle body. Points and meridians at which prana flows-or is kept from flowing.
The love that seeks through Imaginal embodiment a furthering, a continuous encounter with the truth it touches, knows this and has faith. Nothing religious about this faith, rather it's an abundance of belief in the future as a bridge from the present.
The overlap or merge with accepted and untried notions of what is true or false also plays in the equivocality of the Image just as sightedness, the unequivocality of the under-recognized Image, moves the surface of Image to block any deeper breath the poem might, and probably does, contain.
